A letter from May 28th, 2025

Time Travelled — 6 months

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe,
Hey.Take a breath.Read this slowly.Let it land.
Today is May 28, 2025, and I just submitted my final recording for ADDCA. It wasn’t perfect—and honestly, I don’t think I’ll pass on this first try. But you know what? That doesn’t even touch the pride I feel right now. Because the fact that I submitted it at all is proof of how far I’ve come.
This program was no joke. It was three full modules over nearly a year:
– Module 1: November 6, 2023 – January 10, 2024– Module 2: January 17, 2024 – March 18, 2024– Module 3: June 24, 2024 – September 23, 2024
Each module was built around twice-weekly 90-minute classes. For a while, I was taking them during the day while working full-time. That alone is a wild sentence. But on top of that, I also:
– Completed three coaching practicums– Found and worked with a mentor coach for three hours– Logged well over 250 hours of paid coaching (the requirement was 50)– Created and submitted a final project– Managed work, school, moving—twice—a breakup, and still kept building my coaching practice
I want you to pause and really see that. You didn’t skate through this. You earned it with your time, your presence, your persistence. You made mistakes. You got tired. You questioned yourself. And you still kept going.
Future me, if you’re ever doubting your progress or feeling like you’re stuck—come back to this. Six months ago, you were doing all of this. Showing up even when things felt heavy. Trusting that the vision you had for yourself was real, even if it didn’t always feel easy.
Maybe by now, you’ve passed the recording. Maybe you’ve submitted another one. Maybe you’ve even moved on to new certifications or deeper work. Whatever you’re doing—remember this version of you. The one who said, “I want to be a coach,” and then became one. Not overnight. Not perfectly. But with heart, grit, and care.
You built something that lasts.
Be proud. Stay grounded. Keep going.
With love and fierce belief,You
